Question: 1 / 155

What should practitioners do if a client experiences discomfort during a cupping session?

Ignore the discomfort to continue the session

Increase the suction level immediately

Assess the client’s comfort level and adjust the suction

Assessing the client’s comfort level and adjusting the suction during a cupping session is crucial for ensuring a positive and effective experience. Discomfort may indicate that the suction is too strong or that the client needs a different technique applied. By evaluating the client's feedback, practitioners can make informed decisions about whether to lower the suction, change the cups or placement, or modify the technique altogether to better meet the client’s needs. This approach not only emphasizes the importance of client-centered care but also helps prevent injury or a negative association with cupping therapy, which is essential for maintaining trust and ensuring future sessions are beneficial. Practitioners should always prioritize the client’s well-being and comfort, making adjustments as necessary throughout the treatment.
